Luv, this is precious. I just copied and sent to my son who recently got a new cat. He and I were talking this morning on the phone and I was telling him something to pick up at the grocery store that he would love. He said while he was trying to write down what I was telling him (name brand, etc.) that his cat was rubbing and loving his hands and was keeping him from writing. So I fully understand what that cat on the video was trying to do.

What a very pretty opening you did, Amy. Enjoyed the cute poem also.

If Tomorrow Never Comes

If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly,
And pray the Lord your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss,
And call you back for just one more

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would tape each word and action,
And play them back throughout my days

If I knew it would be the last time,
I would spare an extra minute or two,
To stop and say "I love you,"
Instead of assuming you know I do.

So just in case tomorrow never comes,
And today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you,
And I hope we never will forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
Young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
You get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
Why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
You'll surely regret the day.

That you didn't take that extra time
For a smile, a hug, or a kiss,
And you were too busy to grant someone,
What turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today,
And whisper in their ear,
That you love them very much, and
You'll always hold them dear.

Take time to say "I'm sorry,"
"Please forgive me," "thank you" or "it's okay".
And if tomorrow never comes,
You'll have no regrets about today

Very cute, Meg.

I see you’re still waiting for the pics. Its 6 pm. here and only 3 in California. Amy has a long time until ‘her’ 5 o’clock...LOL!

I went grocery shopping. Happened upon some Oreo’s and some chocolate candy while there. Also picked up ice cream and I swear the other purchases were nutritional foods. I’m going to do some BBQ wings tomorrow. (actually they are little drummettes.) Maybe by then, I will be rested up! I am tired now. No nap!

[jaycee]

How precious, teenie!! Its a good thing you left the light on.....poor me, carrying in all those bags of groceries, tired, worn out.......no nap! Could we have a pity party for me?? LOL!

[jaycee]

Yes, the S and the D are side by side. What do they think....that we are poifect???

[jaycee]

I love this poem, Dubya. I saw it a long time ago and it brings tears to my eyes. Wonderful words.

[jaycee]

Thank you for your sweet comments on the little girl. She is a darling curly headed doll for sure!

[jaycee]

[jaycee]

Thank you, tiapam.

[luvie]

Glad you liked....and understood...it! It always makes me
smile to see. I have had cats like that....me, me, me! LOL!

[jaycee]

How old is Max anyway? Will he be a little jealous maybe? I’m sure he knows you all love him so he has nothing to worry about.

[jaycee]

Tell kitty not to worry....I iz idiot occasionally....LOL!

Cats are very loving. Barry says when he gets in in the evening, his cat starts stretching and rolling over....I guess thats their way of greeting and saying “I am so glad you’re home.”
